Since they tuned into the middle of the Mercury Theater on the Air, playing their dramatization of H.G Wells The War of the Worlds. Though announced properly, many people then were into the habit of channel surfing when their shows went to commercial, and so the show in progress was mistaken for an actual alien encounter.\n\nMike and Sheldon have decided this anniversary needed to be honored and so we review the Orson Wells broadcast that swept a nation by storm on the night it aired, Oct 30, 1938. Join us as we review a radio broadcast on a movie review podcast because why would we do what you expect on Halloween? \n\nYou can follow us on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/Thegraveyardshiftpod/\n\nOn Twitter at https://twitter.com/GS_horrorpod\n\nAnd on Instagram at www.instagram.com/thegraveyardshiftpod/\n\nIf you would like to make a donation to help keep the show going and get access to bonus content, you can do so by checking us out at https://www.patreon.com/Graveyard\n\nemail us at graveyardshiftpod@gmail.com for movie suggestions or Patreon ideas.\n\nCheck us out on www.radiohaver.com as well as the other shows on the network.\n\nThanks for listening.","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/6d841fbe-c5ce-4600-bb12-8d1c01f00e8d/dfZaK2bJduI_UuzKgwRkHB3D.jpg"}
